Chapter 64: Chapter 64
"Xiao Xue, are you okay?" As they entered the office, Zhang Jing’s face showed concern as she quickly rushed toward Cheng Tianxue.
"I’m fine, Xiao Jing." Cheng Tianxue held Zhang Jing’s hand, her cool and detached face showing a trace of a smile.
"That’s good! You scared me to death," Zhang Jing said with relief.
After finishing, she released Cheng Tianxue’s hand, gesturing for her to stay put.
Zhang Jing walked to the middle of the office and shouted at her subordinates, "Seal off the scene! Check the origins of these assassins thoroughly."
Giving a cold glance at Zhou Pengfei, who was unconscious from a gunshot wound, Zhang Jing frowned, feeling a hint of satisfaction in her heart, wishing Zhou Pengfei, this annoying brat, would just die completely! However, due to her duty as a police officer, she ordered an officer with a stern face, "Call an ambulance! Notify his family and tell them that Zhou Pengfei has been injured and hospitalized."
After giving all her instructions, Zhang Jing walked back over to Cheng Tianxue.
As for the security guard from earlier, a police officer was already taking his statement.
"What exactly happened, Xiao Xue?" Zhang Jing asked anxiously.
"It’s ..." Cheng Tianxue recounted everything that had just happened with great care.
After listening to Cheng Tianxue’s story, Zhang Jing, her face cold and brimming with killing intent, said, "Humph! These damn assassins, luckily they are already dead. If they fell into this young lady’s hands, I would definitely make them suffer!"
Having said this, she saw Zhang Xiaohao entering, and spoke irritably, "Damn it! You actually behaved like a man today, not embarrassing Xiao Xue."
"..." Zhang Xiaohao felt like he was being shot while lying down, and could only touch his nose with a wry smile.
In his heart, he thought irritably, I’ve always been a genuine man, okay? If you don’t believe it, you’re welcome to try anytime. Of course, Zhang Xiaohao didn’t dare to say this out loud; if he did, with Zhang Jing’s fiery temperament, she would surely chase him all over the streets.
Before long, the police had finished processing the scene. All the assassins were dead, and with nobody left to question, they could only take the bodies back for a slow investigation.
As for Zhou Pengfei, he was also taken away by the incoming ambulance.
"Xiao Xue, I need to go back now. I’m afraid I can’t come to your place tonight! Don’t worry, no matter who’s pulling the strings, I will find out who’s behind this and bring them to justice on the spot! To give you justice," Zhang Jing said seriously.
"Mm, you take care of yourself," Cheng Tianxue said.
After speaking, Zhang Jing left with a group of police officers.
Looking at the security guard standing in the hallway, Cheng Tianxue asked, "What’s your name?"
"To answer Mr. Cheng, my name is Li Xiaolu," the security guard replied.
"You’ve worked hard this time. Keep up the good work; the company will not let down employees who are diligent and responsible. Go and assess the damage, see how many security guards were injured, and report back to me later," Cheng Tianxue instructed.
"Yes, Mr. Cheng!" Li Xiaolu answered respectfully, his voice trembling with excitement as he walked out.
After Li Xiaolu left, Cheng Tianxue thought for a moment, picked up the phone, and quickly dialed Su Ruobai’s mobile. The call connected promptly, and she reported the events succinctly.
After hanging up, Cheng Tianxue gave the wall kicked in by someone a cold look, glanced at Zhang Xiaohao indifferently, and picked up the phone again to call the facilities manager, requesting someone to come and repair her damaged office.
Putting down the phone, Cheng Tianxue picked up important documents from the desk and walked out of the office toward the room next door.
Zhang Xiaohao was perplexed, thinking what is going on? Content orıginally comes from 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒·𝗇𝗲𝘁
I did save you after all. Even if you are my wife, a thank you would be nice!
Shaking his head, Zhang Xiaohao still followed her into another luxurious and impressive office behind Cheng Tianxue.
"Without my permission, you are not allowed to come in!" Cheng Tianxue seemed to have anticipated that Zhang Xiaohao would follow her in. She set down her documents on the desk and walked toward the inner resting room.
"Uh! What’s this all about? So secretive and serious," Zhang Xiaohao thought to himself with irritation as he saw the door close.
After closing the door to this office, Zhang Xiaohao sat down cross-legged on the ground, began to practice the Shennong Battle Sky Technique, and absorbed the spiritual energy from nature to restore the True Qi and spirit that he had depleted earlier.
As he practiced, more and more of nature’s spiritual energy centered around him and flowed into his body.
After a furious refinement by the Shennong Battle Sky Technique, it was converted into True Qi to replenish what Zhang Xiaohao had lost.
Suddenly, at that moment, a startled scream from Cheng Tianxue came from the resting room.
Hearing Cheng Tianxue’s scream, Zhang Xiaohao immediately opened his eyes, thinking to himself, "Not good"!
With a push of his foot, he used the Twelve Heavenly Steps technique to violently kick open the tightly shut door and rushed inside.
"Where is she? Xue’er, are you in the bathroom?" Zhang Xiaohao thought quickly to himself.
Without hesitation, he kicked open the bathroom door and darted in.
"Ah... there’s a mouse!" Seeing Zhang Xiaohao, Cheng Tianxue shouted as if she had seen a savior, rushing out from a corner and jumping onto him.
"I didn’t mean to!" Zhang Xiaohao said.
After speaking, Zhang Xiaohao, as if knowing Cheng Tianxue was about to explode, whistled smugly and quickly slipped away.
"Ah! You bastard, stand still if you dare, I will definitely finish you off!"
The room erupted with Cheng Tianxue’s furious roar, followed by the sound of the door slamming shut.
"Heh heh! That was not a loss," Zhang Xiaohao remarked with satisfaction.
